“The same goes to you, Old Master Wu! It’s not good to be too greedy!”
Old Master Wu looked at Li Xiaoran in surprise.
The smile on Li Xiaoran’s face widened. Then, she looked up at Old Master Wu.
“As far as I know, when you sold cows to others, it was a hundred taels of silver a cow! To be willing to pay five hundred taels of silver, I’m already being very generous! Or is it that Old Master Wu doesn’t want to sell cows to us at all? Are you sure that in the entire nation, only your family has cows?”
Old Master Wu was very shocked when he heard Li Xiaoran say that he was too greedy.
No matter what kind of person he met in the past, no one was as calm as Li Xiaoran was when facing him.
Li Xiaoran pointed out that Old Master Wu was the greedy one, causing his emotions to fluctuate.
Thus, Old Master Wu wondered if Li Xiaoran knew that the Wu family’s cows were sold for a hundred taels of silver.
Li Xiaoran happened to hear Old Master Wu’s thoughts, so she hit the nail on the head and caught him off guard!
Speaking of which, Li Xiaoran was really not that determined to get the Wu family’s cows!
After all, she had just heard from Old Master Wu that there was actually another family raising cows in Sichuan, and the scale was even larger than the Wu family’s.
Therefore, Li Xiaoran felt even more relaxed.
“Originally, I respected you as an elder and wanted to be on good terms with the Wu family, so I offered 500 taels of silver! If you’re still dissatisfied, we can’t continue this deal! Coincidentally, I also feel that it’s too inappropriate for me to offer 500 taels of silver. I don’t want to buy it anymore!” Li Xiaoran stood up and bade farewell.
“Stop. Do you think the Wu family is a place where you can come and go as you please?” Old Master Wu suddenly threatened.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately laughed and her impression of the Wu family worsened.
“Old Master Wu, although your family is very powerful, you can’t offend just anyone. You’re so angry that the deal fell through that you want to detain us? If that’s the case, I really have to change my mind about your family!” At this moment, Li Qiuxiang walked forward.
“Father-in-law, Xiaoran is my savior. If not for Xiaoran, I won’t be here!
Without me, I wouldn’t have left with my parents, let alone saved my husband!
Logically speaking, you shouldn’t treat my savior like this!”
“This has nothing to do with you!” When Old Master Wu saw Li Qiuxiang stand up, he immediately scolded angrily, “Wu Dadong, hurry up and pull your wife away!”
When Wu Dadong heard his father’s words, he looked at his wife and then at Li Xiaoran and the others. In the end, he made a decision.
“Father, your daughter-in-law is right! Even if the deal doesn’t work, Xiaoran is my wife’s savior. Our family can’t be ungrateful!”
When Old Master Wu heard Wu Dadong’s words, he was so angry that he trembled.
“I raised you, but you brought your wife to disobey me? If that’s the case, I’d rather you hadn’t been saved back then!”
As soon as he said this, Wu Dadong was stunned. Then, a bitter expression appeared on his face.
“Father, these are your heartfelt words?! Perhaps you hoped that I had died
outside back then? I’m really sorry. I’m so lucky to have come back and gotten in your way! I know you haven’t liked me since I was young, but even if you don’t like me, you can’t vent your anger on Qiuxiang’s savior, right?”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she sensed Wu Dadong’s emotions and glanced at Old Master Wu.
“Wu Chuang, bring your seventh uncle and seventh aunt away!” Old Master Wu suddenly said.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she frowned and pulled Li Qiuxiang to her side.
“Old Master Wu, I have no objections if you want to teach your son a lesson, but if word gets out that a father-in-law taught his daughter-in-law a lesson, it won’t sound good! Besides, this daughter-in-law saved your son’s life!”
Li Qiuxiang could not believe it. Why did her father-in-law, who usually looked very amiable, seem to be acting like a different person today?
“Don’t forget that your parents are still in our home!”
As soon as he said this, Li Qiuxiang looked at Old Master Wu in disbelief, then at Wu Dadong.
“Husband!”
When Wu Dadong heard Li Qiuxiang’s call, his eyes became filled with hesitation. In the end, he said, “Father, I know your intentions! Don’t you want our family to leave the Wu family? Alright, I agree. I’ll leave! Let go of my parents-in-law. We’ll leave now!”
When Old Master Wu heard this, he sneered.
“Unfilial son, do you think you still have a chance to negotiate with me? Today, I’ll let you know what filial piety is!”
At this moment, Li Xiaoran suddenly clapped and laughed.
“What a good show!”
With that, Li Xiaoran looked at Li Qiuxiang.
To be honest, she really did not know what to say to Li Qiuxiang.
Li Qiuxiang always seemed to be meeting sc.u.mbags!
Previously, she had met a sc.u.mbag, and now, she met an irresponsible man.
“You clearly know how your family treats you, but you brought Qiuxiang and her family to the Wu family and put them in danger. Now, because of our arrival, you want to use us to please your father, but in the end, you failed!” Li Xiaoran sneered and said, “Wu Dadong, you actually recognized me long ago, right?”
As soon as she said this, Zi Zheng and the others were enlightened.
No wonder they kept feeling that something was wrong and vaguely felt that someone was wandering around them.
It turned out that none of this was just an illusion.
When Li Qiuxiang heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she looked at her husband and then at Li Xiaoran in confusion.
“Xiaoran, what do you mean?”
“Sister Qiuxiang, he recognized me long ago and knew my ident.i.ty. Therefore, right from the beginning, he was scheming against me! As for Old Master Wu, I believe the person behind him has a grudge against my husband! He actually wants to detain me and use me to threaten my husband! Isn’t that right, Old Master Wu?!” Li Xiaoran revealed what she had discovered.
When Li Qiuxiang heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she looked at her husband. “Husband, is what Xiaoran said true? You know Xiaoran’s ident.i.ty? What made you betray my benefactor?”
